I'm sure it looks like I'm hard on her when I keep pulling her up by the harness to keep walking. But what you don't see is that she walked away from the house without any trouble, and the moment we turn towards home, she MUST lay down every three feet. #DogsOfMastodon

It has been a beautiful spring. Rain arrived just in time for all my new plantings. #flowers

@Iloo@mastodon.social @miffyhelen@beige.party The things I see in older people I admire are connection, contentment, and kindness. Connection to people, animals, the environment. Contentment like joy and resilience in challenging circumstances. Kindness to others and self, always giving grace. I think I will have lived a good life if I get to the end with all of these.

@mayintoronto @Kierkegaanks @NilaJones it's so interesting isn't it? In some ways I'm not as close to internet friends. Friendships do tend to taper off as our relationship and technology needs change over time. But I still usually have far more in common with the people I connect with online than irl friends. This affinity gives special weight to the interactions I have with internet friends, even though our ties are more ephemeral. Like butterflies drinking from the same puddle. ☺️

@AoifeGreenhamIllustrations@mastodon.ie I keep a large, 7 day, am and pm pillholder. It is big and colorful and eye catching and each day and time is labeled clearly. I keep it on the bathroom counter where I do my getting ready every morning and before bed. I've had trouble in the past remembering if I've taken my pills yet, like I've accidentally skipped them or taken a double dose. With the pillholder, I can go look at it and clearly see if I've taken them yet for that block of time.

@GummiQ @joybooster they really do look like they just hover to get around 🤣

@mayintoronto @mycrowgirl No, but that's just because I am generally exhausted by in-person group meetups of any kind. That's why I'm online. 😂

@kenSwinson beautiful as always ☺️ Looking at your pieces makes me feel like everything is ok. ❤️

@vagina_museum @MamaLake If you're having pain, reach out for help. It doesn't have to be that way. If you're having unbearable pain, see a doctor. That's not normal. You're not "gross" because you're on your period. You're not "gross" if you use a pad instead of a tampon. Period panties can make you a lot more comfortable. Reuseable cloth pads can help hugely with chaffing. Going through biological cycles is normal. Bleeding is normal. And if guys had to do it, we'd absolutely have PTO for it!

@kenSwinson@indieweb.social beautiful ☺️

@hannah@posts.rat.pictures no but send more pics. It looks like a fun sale 😆
